Kimbo Espresso Napoletano Whole Coffee Beans, Dark Roast, 1kg Bag

We are both huge fans of these beans! I usually make freddo espresso, so I need a strong, aromatic coffee that doesn't get washed out over ice, and these beans worked perfectly. My husband drinks traditional espresso and americano and he was also impressed by the rich strength and thick, silky crema. ​If you're looking for a full bodied coffee with a powerful aroma that for both hot and iced drinks, this is an absolute must try. Just to mention, we both take our coffee black, so I can't express an opinion on how well these beans pair with milk

Excellent beans. Rich, full flavour and a thick crema. Perfect for flat whites. I usually use Lavazza beans but these are just as good!

Tried these as my favourite lavazza ones are so expensive. Found these to be equally as good. They are dark roasted and full bodied with the rich taste I love. The beans produce the perfect taste no matter what coffee is made, be it espresso, cappuccino or latte. The rest of my family also think these are as good as the lavazza ones. Highly recommended and will certainly keep purchasing.

Nice coffee but nothing special. Quite strong but not too bitter. Very dark roast and I really enjoyed it but compared to others that are cheaper I'm not convinced it justifies the price. Would buy again though when on offer. Definitely wouldn't steer anyone away from it.

These have become my go to beans and it's easy to see why. An 80% Arabica and 20% Robusta blend, roasted in the classic Neapolitan tradition, giving a rich, full bodied espresso with a dense, long lasting crema every time. The taste is smooth rather than harsh, with notes of dark chocolate and light spice coming through without any unpleasant bitterness. It works just as well as a straight espresso or in milk based drinks like a latte or cappuccino, holding its character either way.

Straight up, no nonsense cup of java. Bought this on a whim, cos the price looked right and I have to say it didn't disappoint. No crap about hint of chocolate, caramel, nuts or whatever. Just good, great tasting coffee. Dark roast so taste is a bit intense but i wouldn't say strong. Goes great with milk or black (preferred). Will definitely buy again.

These look like theyre premium or of high quality, but the beans aren't as great. The roast is inconsistent in both colour and flavour. I brewed in a moka pot and almost every time ended up with different flavour profile with the exact settings. It's drinkable because of the bitterness and body balance but I wouldn't say it's "intense." It's a classic dark but very inconsistent. It also didn't look very fresh but is almost as good as supermarket beans.

nice and strong and very tasty...just dont have a large cup of it like i did

深入りで、コクと甘みも感じスッキリとした飲み心地です。町のコーヒーショップで買う200ｇ１２００円クラスの焙煎仕立てよりもおいしいかも。苦みもけっこうありますので、苦手な方は薄くするといいかもです。私はミルで引いて紙フィルターで飲んでます。一人分だと、コーヒー 計量スプーン（8ｇ-10ｇ？）に２杯入れて作っています。出来上がりはスタバのマグに7割程度の量。最初ブラックで飲んで、（結構濃いめ）半分くらいから牛乳入れて飲んでます。また買おうとおもったけど、売り切れ？なのかな。ミディアムローストの方も買ってみようと思います。

Kimbo’nun bu ürünü genel olarak oldukça başarılı. Aroması ve tonlamaları kendine özgü, gayet dengeli. Sadece kavrulma seviyesi bana göre biraz yüksek olsa da, lezzet profili genel anlamda çok tatmin edici.

super

Très très bon café

I had read some good things about Kimbo on various espresso forums online, so wanted to give this a try. I am using a Niche Zero grinder paired with a high end dual boiler machine. First impressions are that these beans are exuding of roasty, smoky flavor. There is not much of that classic chocolatey Italian espresso flavor. Just way too bitter. I have been pulling ristrettos given the roast level and have tried varying shot temperature, but it just feels like a cheap commercial grade coffee. I bought this purely for exploration, but don't think I can recommend it to others. One can find better things for the same amount of money. For instance, Illy is better, Malabar Gold is quite awesome, etc. Also, I bought this at the end of September 2022 and the beans were roasted on March 2, 2022. Was not expecting fresh beans through Amazon anyway, but including it here as some useful information.
